Jeannine Vrins is a ceramicist, designer, educator, and researcher working at the intersection of art, design, craft, and material science. With degrees in Product Design (LUCA Genk, B), Ceramics (KASK Antwerp, B), and additional studies in Ceramic Technology (KU Leuven) and Geology (UHasselt), her practice bridges conceptual thinking and technical expertise.

Her work and research explore the ceramic surface not as a static skin, but as a tactile, expressive, and transformative boundary—where material, memory, and meaning converge. Jeannine combines deep artistic inquiry with practical experimentation, questioning how we touch, sense, and relate to ceramic materials. She is currently a lecturer in ceramic technology at PXL-MAD School of Arts and has led numerous educational initiatives, including professional development workshops for ceramics teachers and collaborations with internationally renowned experts in the field.

Driven by a fascination for the "in-between"—between success and failure, intuition and structure, art and science—she invites participants to explore sustainability not only in ecological terms, but also as a way to sustain thinking, making, and connecting through clay.
